You’re Expendable (2)
Tonight was destined to be a night full of murder. Day by day, the conflict in the court was getting more and more intense. The battle that was ant for tomorrow’s hunt was moved earlier. Any problems that hadn’t been resolved in court could only be fixed with bloodshed. Especially under the concealing cover of the night, the battle will unfortunately be even more grueso!
Ye Mu was embraced in Mo Linyuan’s arms as they rode on a horse together. After a few kiloters, Ye Mu heard a blood-curdling scream. She lightly tugged on Mon Linyuan’s clothes, “Soone died.”
“Oh?” Unsure if she had heard correctly, but it seed like Mo Linyuan’s one word response was filled with excitent!
“I’m surprised it’s already happening so soon. That’s fine, having a little more deaths earlier on will give even more opportunities for other candidates in the future.”
Who would’ve thought Mo Linyuan could say such insanely unsettling words. Could it be that he brought these people out just to let them die?
At that mont, another horse sped up next to Mo Linyuan. It was Zi Xu, who bowed and quickly reported, “Your Majesty, as instructed, the people you had us protect are accompanied by heavy troops! They have all been gathered together in one place and securely protected.”
Mo Linyuan stopped his horse and said, “Well done. You are responsible for their safety. I want everyone to know that those who behave will live longer than those who are disobedient.”
“Yes.”
Ye Mu shivered. She couldn’t help but ask, “Could it be that you already knew early on they wanted to host a night hunt? Is that why you already have so court officials under protection in advance?”
Mo Linyuan lowered his head and lightly pinched her little nose. Under the moonlight, his drooping phoenix-like eyes were exquisitely captivating.
“I didn’t know ahead of ti, I just guessed correctly. So people are just way too impatient and can’t wait until the official hunting event tomorrow. Isn’t that to be expected?”
He laughed wickedly, “Besides, I only need to protect those who follow . As for the others, their death has nothing to do with .”
“If all your people have been protected, who was the person that just died? Is there a conflict among the families?” Ye Mu asked in confusion.
Mo Linyuan didn’t answer the question directly. He only chuckled, “You don’t need to pay those rotten people any attention. Let’s go. Winter is just around the corner. Let hunt a fox so that we can make a scarf for you. How does that sound?”
As he was saying this, he clenched his thighs and directed the horse deeper into the forest. Their group didn’t light any torches, making them resemble ghosts-like figures strolling in the forest.
In the corner of the forest, the initial battles gradually slowed down. Only the corpses littered on the ground gave proof to the tragedy that just occurred.
“Hahaha, Zhong Zhao, you never even suspected that this trap was ant for you all along!”
The Head of the Zhong family was surrounded by the Zhou family mbers. His face went white with fear!
“How is this possible! Wen Ze clearly said that… He definitely said that…”
“He definitely said what?” The short and chubby Chief Zhou beca visible in the fla. His face was twisted in excitent!
“Did Wen Ze tell you that, as long as you got rid of , he would help you slowly devour my family’s assets?”
After Zhong Zhao heard this, his complexion went deathly pale. He started crawling towards the protection of the surrounding corpses.
Chief Zhou laughed again, “You may not realize this, but Wen Ze also said the sa thing to ! However, he obviously ant it when he said it to . He also promised both yours and the Empress Dowager’s piece of the city boundary map to ! Even all these dead soldiers around us were gifted by him! Accept it Zhong Zhao, you’re expendable!”
